Which “not hot” people do you fancy?

As a corollary to a thread asking which hot people you don't fancy...

The litmus test here is that we're talking about people who, if you mentioned over coffee that you fancied them, your friends would wrinkle their noses and say, "Oh, God - really? Ew. No, no no - I can't see the attraction at all."

I'd like to start by saying I don't fancy either of them
.... but I never understood how Phil Mitchell (fat, bald, angry, alcoholic) and Ian Beale (v average looking, whiny miserable bloke turned beardy homeless person) managed to sleep with almost every women who set foot in Walford....?

Adam Driver is just straight up hot. If you saw him walking down the street, you wouldn’t go “oh his face is a bit wonky”, you’d be struck by the cheekbones, the luscious flowing hair and the fact he’s massive and you could climb him
like a tree.

On the subject of gone-to-seed men, I’ve never found Kenneth Branagh remotely attractive until I saw Wallander. I can only say disheveled and depressed suits him rather well.

So agree on Wallander ! Weird isn’t it ? Maybe it is the vulnerability?

Oh, and Will Self.

Oh good God no to Will Self. He treated Deborah Orr so horribly, ugly inside and out that man.

Adam Driver is bloody gorgeous...a magnificent specimen of a man 😍

I must have a thing for not hot blokes - like about 80% these so far.

Okay here goes:

• Greg Davies. He's funny which is even better. I want to curl up on his belly.
• Rory McCann.
•Kristofer Hivju.
• Ron Perlman.

In answer to the question The Hound from GOTs

He IS hot. Nothing dodgy about that one at all.

Yes to both Brannings!

Tony Blair.

He's good-looking

forevercooking · 04/12/2022 17:00

CaptainCallisto · 04/12/2022 15:02

Also Philip Glennister, but only as DCI Hunt, which seems even worse somehow because he's such a dick!

Oh yes! And in clocking off

NippyWoowoo · 04/12/2022 17:01

Adam Driver.

I feel like he fits both threads equally, as to many he's repulsive, but he makes me quiver

Elon Musk

Same. Although I'd ever say it out loud in company. I don't know what it is although I'm sure the money and power doesn't hurt

Let's just say I'd bear his 9th or 10th child, wherever we're at

MillicentMold · 04/12/2022 17:05

Gordon Ramsay
Mostly because he’s an ace in the kitchen but I wouldn’t kick him out of bed either 😉

I’d say he is generally in the hot basket.
